YMMV / Jasmin Wagner

• Critical Dissonance: Critics were mostly dismissive towards Blümchen in the 90s, however she was among the best-selling German acts of the era.
  • On the other hand, critics were a bit more positive towards Die Versuchung, even though many of Jasmin's fans generally don't seem to care for it due to its drastically different sound.
• Fanon Discontinuity: Seems to be the case with Die Versuchung to many people. The album isn't necessarily bad as much as it simply wasn't what fans were hoping for. It's pretty telling that Jasmin ended up adopting a more "Blümchen-esque" electronic sound for her next major release (not counting the Alexandra Cover Album, which served mostly as a soundtrack to Jasmin's theater show and wasn't meant as a "pop" release).
• Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Or rather, Swedes Love Blümchen. Her song "Heut' ist mein Tag" was a big hit there, despite most Swedes not speaking German.
  • Also applies to her English releases as Blossom, especially in Eastern Europe.
• Memetic Mutation: On [[Website/YTMND]], "Heut' ist mein Tag" was heavily associated with the "OMG, secret Nazi forest" fad, in which users would circle a hidden swastika in an otherwise-innocuous image, and have an image of Adolf Hitler flash on the screen, accompanied by a loop of the song.
• Pandering to the Base: An arguably more positive example. Her album Von Herzen has been positively received by Blümchen-fans, which was likely the intended outcome.
• Suspiciously Similar Song:
  • Her first ballad "Gib mir noch Zeit"/"Give Me More Time" sounds a lot like Janet Jackson's "Let's Wait Awhile", both in terms of composition as well as having pretty much the same theme. It's pretty clear that one song inspired the other.
  • Her song "Ich bin wieder hier", despite being a loose cover of a completely different song, sounds a lot like "How Much is the Fish?" by Scooter. This also applies to her (original) song "So wie ein Wunder"^translation lit. "Just like a miracle".
• Win Back the Crowd: Her album Von Herzen could be considered this; her collaboration single Herzalarm (as Blümchen) with FiNCH as well, due to its old school happy hardcore sound. The fact it references many of her old hits probably helps too.
